Psychrophrynella adenopleura is a species of frog in the Craugastoridae family. It is endemic to Bolivia and only known from near its type locality in the Carrasco National Park, Cochabamba Department, at elevations of 3,250–3,400 m (10,660–11,150 ft) asl.[1][2] It is a common species living in low, humid montane forest typical to the transition between Yungas forest and páramo. Outside the national park, if present, it would be threatened by habitat loss.[1]
